Before anybody thinks it could only happen in The USA..

Here in The UK a few years ago, McDonalds won a case where people had said that if you eat their food, it will be bad for your health long term. It appears that if you can afford a better legal team, you can prove your food doesn't clog arteries.

Luckily, a few regional directors of public health repeated this in PCT board meetings under qualified privilege, just in case anybody thought court judgements clashed with what we know about fat and cholesterol.

(I have had a quick search on the details, but can't find them. This case did happen, or I should stop eating cheese before going to bed. I don't think I dreamt it?....)
